Miniature sheathed thermocouples type K.
Small marvels for big tasks.

We manufacture miniature marvels by hand to the highest standards in accordance with DIN EN 60854. These consist of a type K thermocouple and a metal sheath that serves as protection. The sheath thickness for these small diameters is approx. 12% of the total diameter. The two conductors are insulated from each other and from the sheath by highly compressed magnesium oxide. The thermocouple (the two cores) in type K consists of nickel-chromium and nickel. Our miniature sheathed thermocouples are available in the following overall diameters:

Miniature TE°
Extremely fast response times of the thermocouple: With a diameter of 0.5 mm, the response time for direct heat transfer is approx. 25 ms - with 0.25 mm, however, it is only 7 ms
  • Fast response times of the thermocouple: With a diameter of 0.5 mm, the response time
    with direct heat transfer is approx. 25 ms - with 0.25 mm, however, it is only 7 ms
  • High temperature resistance
  • Improved service life compared to resistance thermometers under mechanical stress and vibration.
  • For use wherever little installation space/height is available and fast and precise measurement results are required
  • Especially in analytical and medical technology, nanotechnology, test and laboratory setups
  • Also good for temperature measurement in seals, gaps and drill holes
